Week 4: Utter Laziness

May 27, 2009

I’m tired and lazy, and I’m hoping that this feeling passes soon.

Fun Food Friday

May 22, 2009

I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I’ve had brownies, cakes, and cookies on the brain since last week’s Fun Food Friday, or it could have been the (nearly) whole package of salty Ore-Ida Fast Food Fries that I ate last night for dinner (those things taste way better than they really should); but all I really want to talk about today is chocolate and cookies.

Costume Change: From Breakfast Puff to Breakfast Cake!

May 21, 2009

Unfortunately, Sunday’s Brunch Bunch Breakfast Puffs got stale after a few days. Rather than being wasteful, I remixed the breakfast puffs into delicious breakfast cakes! The benefit is that the new and improved cakes are much more nutritionally sound than the original puffs, while still maintaining their original yum-factor.

Rewind: Sunday Brunch Bunch

May 20, 2009

I was sad on Sunday when I woke up to yucky rain. This fact meant that all original plans to spectate the Columbia Triathlon with my girls were thwarted. Rained out. There was only one thing that we could do. Proceed on with our Brunch Bunch. No spectating, just eating.

May 19, 2009

Ashley and Toni from Black Girls Run are breaking through stereotypes in order to better themselves and others. One of my favorite parts about their blog is the recipes! Today, they’ve put together a very special recipe just for Jogger’s Life readers. It’s a good one. I promise.

Pasta, Mushrooms & Spinach…With a Sprinkle of Crack.

May 16, 2009

While wandering around my kitchen, preparing food for Sunday Brunch (look for a post on that tomorrow), I realized that I was starving. I ran 7 miles this morning, and have sort of maintained a sporadic eating schedule today. Starving. Then, like magic, Google Reader told me that I had a new blog post to read from PW Cooks. Then, I read. And drooled. I knew exactly what I wanted for dinner.

Oh, Kitchen! **sigh**

May 16, 2009

In case you missed it the other 2,387 times that I have mentioned, MY KITCHEN IS SMALL. I’m still trying to figure something out. How in the world am I going to fit any more food or appliances on this tiny little piece of counter space?

Fun Food Friday

May 15, 2009

Today, the focus of Fun Food Friday is on snacks. Why? Because I like snacks, and I still have granola bars on the brain. Also, because I just consumed an entire bucket full of spinach and ricotta ravioli for lunch (dinner leftovers), and the only thing that I ever want to to do after eating 5,928 grams of carbs is eat chocolate and take a nap. Snack research is my only hope. Otherwise, I will surely be found snoring and drooling on my bank statements.

Oh She Glows Granola Bars: Success!

May 15, 2009

In an effort to help Angela from Oh She Glows figure out the mystery of her crumbly granola bars, I decided to try making them myself. I followed her original recipe , with one exception: I sprinkled them with the magic fairy dust that is my Excalibur Food Dehydrator!
